Written by the company
Koala Go is a virtual classroom built from the ground up for online tutoring with kids — the use case Zoom and Google Meet weren't designed for.

Additional features include AI-generated class notes, class recording, scheduling, and B2B tutoring businesses. Backed by Y Combinator (W22). Built-in whiteboard. Trusted by independent tutors.

Great team support. Engaging tools to make learning fun.
Great team support. I love the capabilities and tools I can use to create 'whiteboard' activities for my students.
It makes learning more engaging with stronger recall of concepts I am teaching that they can put into practice.
I can't imagine tutoring with any other platform.
Thank you, Koala team, for your ingenuity !
KoalaGo makes online teaching so much easier!
KoalaGo makes online teaching so much easier! I am able to easily tailor the classroom for each student. I'm not super tech savvy, so the ease of the platform has saved me AND kept me here for 4+ years! The customer service is AMAZING. The creators hold video chats to listen to concerns and show new features. They are constantly upgrading and adding new features.
Fun Kid Friendly Platform
Koala gives my students a great experience that makes learning fun.
I am loving the Koala Go platform
I am loving the Koala Go platform. I am still learning how to properly use it, though. I love that it is being improved and updated all the time
A fantastic platform for teaching children!
I’ve been using Koala Go for seven months, and I love pretty much everything about it! It’s easy to use, and my students get the hang of it really quickly.
The playground is a particular favourite—both for me and my students! It makes our lessons so much fun and gives me lots of opportunities to get creative with my teaching. It’s a wonderful way to make learning engaging for younger students.
I also love the invoicing system. It’s straightforward, keeps everything in one place, and makes managing payments so convenient, especially when teaching international students.
Another great part about it is the tech support - they're extremely helpful, pleasant and efficient.
There are a couple of areas where I’d love to see small improvements. The whiteboard tools could flow a little better and require fewer clicks. For example, when adding separate pieces of text, you have to select the text tool again each time. It would be much smoother if it stayed selected so you could simply click elsewhere and continue typing.
The playground building tools can also be a little awkward for children. Positioning the blocks accurately can be tricky, which makes building quite a slow process.
Overall, though, I’m really happy with Koala Go. It brings so much creativity and enjoyment to my lessons, and I have no plans to switch!

Koala Go is an absolutely phenomenal…
Koala Go is an absolutely phenomenal program, but even better, it is a phenomenal company.
The program has 3 components that make it outstanding for teaching in--1) an interactive whiteboard that I can prepare ahead of time with slides for presenting material. The student and I each have control of the board at the same time. (No more sharing control with my student and fighting over the mouse!) 2) an interactive co-browser where I can share Internet sites and also have Koala Go drawing tools that overlay the content, allowing me to add clarification and direct them to key points (and again, we each have our own mouse pointer) and 3) an amazing 3D virtual learning world that provides so much engagement for the learner.
Koala Go is an amazing company because it has thought of everything a teacher needs to fuel student creativity and joy in learning while managing any potential behaviors. Teachers can control the tool access that students have, and they can also use a focus mode that brings a student's attention to the material if they are wandering around the 3D world a little too much or if they just need the material to be zoomed in size. Most importantly, the Koala Go team is on call 24/7 with team members stationed around the world for continual service. No matter where you are, there's always someone available to hop on with you and troubleshoot. Note that I do not need to use this amazing, top quality tech service very often, but when I do, I am so grateful they have LIVE humans who immediately respond to you, not bots! There is no "waiting to connect you to an agent" and wasting 10 minutes of your life. The service is immediately available, and a warm, lovely, friendly human is available to help you. :) Finally (promise), the Koala Go team is always taking suggestions, and they have incorporated many teacher recommendations for improving this already wonderful product.
No, I am not a paid sponsor or advertiser. I am a dyslexia tutor, and I have seen first-hand how much this program helps reduce the anxiety my students might have otherwise had around reading tutoring (an area of weakness). They love coming to class, and I am so grateful for the work Koala has done to make teaching and learning a joy in their program. Far from getting paid to say that, I'm happily paying them! Take all my money!! LOL!

Best online teaching program!
So happy I was told about Koala Go! It is perfect for teaching children online. I have been using Koala Go for 4 years. No other program has Koala Go's interactive tools. Being able to have students write, type, and move objects on the screen is extremely valuable when teaching an Orton-Gillingham reading lesson. Another plus is having everything saved within the program and easily accessible during the lesson. This helps keep the lesson streamlined and time-efficient.

I love the prize incentives, and that I can offer a more interactive online experience for my students.

A Game Changer
I went from struggling to keep my students attention during their online dyslexia therapy to having my students completely engaged and having a great time. Zoom and Meet are for adults. Koala Go is for kids (and adults who like to enjoy learning).

absolutely the best company
This is absolutely the best company I have ever worked with. I signed up for their business plan, but then fell ill and they really kept things on pace which ultimately helped me out and made me feel like I did not fall behind on my business. The families I serve are always so impressed with the platform and sign up, and now I can have teachers help me while monitoring them. Very important for quality control and security purposes! Xavier and his team are TOP NOTCH. Truly no one better. Special thanks to Noah but really every team member I have spoken to has been superior!!

The Best
I love it and the children I tutor love it! It makes interactive learning easy.
Koala isn't just a meeting platform
Koala isn't just a meeting platform, it is made for teaching and filled with the tools and extras you need to make your online lessons pop, all organized into one place. The whiteboard tools, shared browser and playground offer a variety of teaching environments and I can save all of each student's work in their own spot. The 24/7 online help has saved me from technical jams more than once. It's the best!

KoalaGo makes tutoring my students a pleasure. It is so much better than Zoom or Google Meet because it was built for tutoring, not for businesses. The platform is easy to use. There are so many great things about it -- the whiteboard, the co-browser, the teaching tools, the playground which kids LOVE. However the staff is what sets this company apart from all others. The 24 hour immediate tech services which allows me to chat with a live person willing and able to answer all of my questions and to help me troubleshoot problems encountered during a tutoring session is so valuable. The company is always improving the platform based upon the needs of tutors. They truly want to know how we use the platform and how they can make it better to make our jobs easier.

A career-boosting platform
Koala has been an absolute career-changing move for me. For over half a decade I've used this platform to reach students across North America as well as collaborate with professionals in my field. The customer service is always quick, warm, and helpful. The team at Koala truly supports you and believes in your success. Not once have I looked back to Zoom or any other platform. Thank you, Koala!

Amazing online teaching platform with great support
Koala Go is an absolutely INCREDIBLE online teaching platform - so much better than Zoom, LessonSpace, etc. In particular, the co-browser tool allows my students to interact directly with digital lesson slides, games, practice exercises, and other activities. The whiteboard is very intuitive and functional, including being able to upload worksheets or slides to annotate. For my students though, what they LOVE and keeps them coming back is the Koala playground zone - a kind of Minecraft-style 3D learning world, where you can easily build immersive role-playing activities, virtual escape rooms, etc full of educational quizzes and practice questions.
The other thing that really makes Koala Go stand out to me as an online teacher is how amazing their support is. They have a 24/7 help chat that responds (with a real person) within moments, live in class, to solve any tech issues. This is something no other virtual teaching platform I've tried has been able to match.

Koala Go is the Best Online Teaching/Tutoring Platform
Koala Go is an amazing online teaching/learning platform. The experience is phenomenal for both teacher/tutors and their students. It uses a co-browser, a shared whiteboard, and the incredible immersive teaching “playground.”
The customer service chat uses REAL people, 24/7.
